I mean, the people did vote for her… if someone is gonna have to be the puppet/figurehead it should still be her, not the previous administration.

It can’t be revoked or transferred, he just has the physical token. He’s an idiot.


If he wants something shiny, and it has a chance of protecting even one Venezuelan family from senseless tantrums, might as well hand it over. It’s not exactly a bold move but it is a peaceful one, and it might help.


I theorize he is trying to get into heaven (???) and he might believe that the only thing that could cancel out all his sins is to become the Nobel Peace Prize winner (???) through violence (???)
None of this makes any sense if you don’t have severe dementia.


I feel like her sacrificial decision to give him this (ultimately meaningless) symbolic token in exchange for the potential of peace for her country is showing why she deserved the Peace Prize in the first place. If handing it over makes Trump chill the hell out about working with Venezuela’s succession, it will have been worth it.
(This situation is obviously batshit insane and it’s pathetic that he’s extorting her, but at least she’s trying to use all her resources available to manipulate this mad king and sue for peace - if this Nobel Prize was driving his hatred, it’s best to sacrifice it I guess. Especially since the actual honor is non-transferrable LMAO)


I’m already from Michigan, so I feel right at home in the cold north :) 🍁


This is real! I’m one of these people and my family is working on assembling the documentation!
They’re union. It helps a lot.
Dude was paid by the word and it shows. On the bright side, the book is excellent- it’s just a bit padded. I feel like it’s one of the few books where I feel like an abridged version might be an improvement.


I have audio processing issues that make me hear everything at equal levels of attention.
This means I can’t be in an echoey restaurant without earplugs, but it did help me become a professional orchestra conductor and everyone tells me it’s surprising how well I can notice tiny details from individual players. Go figure.


Good pick, IMO


We’re doing our best to shut down wherever they pop up but they REALLY want our electricity, land, and water.


They’re trying to build several right now near my home in Southeast Michigan. So now you know where.


I’m sure they’ll get around to it in six, maybe seven years.
or just break em :p


Which Lemmy instance? It’s federated and each server is different. It’s like asking “what will be the top post on the forum” or “what’ll be pinned on Discord”.


I got some Etymotic reusable plugs and I never leave home without 'em. They come with a little carrying case, and they don’t affect the frequency response of my hearing (just the overall decibel level!)


Yeah, my comeback to this is usually “and some of us have plenty to spare”
I’m not concerned about her, I’m concerned for her.
There is very little to criticize here. You’ve done a good job!
However, it looks like this might have been done very slowly and carefully, so I think you will benefit from practicing writing faster now. You have the shapes, now get the speed!
